Original God's Dark Priest

Veronica's words were so mysterious that Saphir and Ying were confused.

There is a secret here, but the two cannot figure it out. According to Veronica, the Safir of the past is different from the Safir of the present, which is a problem.

Another point is that she never mentions the "future" Sapphire.

The past, present and future are the three lives, and are also the normal state. Everyone has a past, present and future. Unless he dies, these three should be unified, and he is always in any stage.

But Veronica spoke of the past and the present in a distinguished tone, but never mentioned the future. This was very strange. It was obvious that the "future" had already appeared, but she deliberately ignored it here.

This made Saphir think of the question that had arisen in his mind before, that is, is the "she" of the future really "her"?

Maybe it was someone else? Or maybe it was indeed her, but not herself, but another her.

Time travel can lead to paradoxes. If the future self insists on changing something, it will inevitably lead to the butterfly effect, which will change certain things at that point in time and thus change her cognition.

For example, in the case of Rosaline, the future Saphir came here by some means, lit up the Seraph constellation of the six life stars, and engraved the light of revival on the letter, thereby saving Rosaline's life.

At first glance this seems fine.

But this does not stand up to scrutiny, because since Rosaline is not dead, the future Sapphire will not have the obsession to go back to the past and do this. If she does not go back to do it, Rosaline will repeat the same mistake and die in the past.

Unless Safire, knowing all this, chooses to go back to the past and save Rosaline's life with the same method, in other words, this is called severing cause and effect.

But there is a more serious problem, that is, in the same space and time, there can only be one identical individual. This is also one of the basic laws of space and time.

Otherwise, with the ability to travel through time and space, Saphir could continue to travel through time and space, gathering thousands and millions of herself together to work towards that goal in the same time and space. She didn't believe that she couldn't find a way to save Teyvat in this way.

But the reality is that so far, getting Teyvat out of its predicament is still an unattainable dream, that is to say, this idea is impossible to achieve.

But that future self did appear, and this is an indisputable fact.

Where is the problem?

There may be only one answer: that person is Saphir, but not her, at least not her in this world line.

It's a parallel world.

And that person...those people must have paid a huge price to appear in this world. What was the price?

It was definitely not just an injury or forced repatriation, so the only trace left was...memories.

Saphir suddenly felt a little frightened. If the things she had been dreaming about were real and not accidental, then the reason for such dreams was probably not the awakening of memories caused by the simple revival of power, but rather the instillation of this part of memory.

It is easy to imagine where the memories that entered her mind came from.

After doing all this, where will those people go? Saphir doesn't know, maybe there will be an answer at the end of the journey. After all, her journey is far from over.

The next day, Mond.

Saphir did not choose to go directly with Ying and the others today, but went to find Keli.

On the first day of the Wind Flower Festival, she did not go to look for Klee because of Cole, so she planned to take Rimuru to look for the little guy the next day, and by the way, fulfill her original promise.

After all, when she first met Klee, she promised to take her to meet Rimuru.

Klee did not go out today, but was drawing with crayons in the Knights' Order. Perhaps because Mondstadt's reform was relatively successful, Jean had a lot of free time, so she could often accompany little Klee.

In Safire's opinion, this is a good thing, because what Kelly needs is not just a stable environment, she also needs companionship.

The biggest problem that always caused her to get into trouble before was not because she was young, but because no one was patient enough to teach her what she did wrong and why it was wrong.

Albedo himself hasn't fully understood human morality and the rule of law, let alone educating Klee.

Since Jyn has no free time, she can only use solitary confinement as a punishment to stop Klee from getting into trouble.

Now that Qin has a lot more free time, she has more time to accompany Klee.

During this time, she clearly realized that Kelly didn't really like fried fish that much, she just lacked company.

Alice is away from home all year round, so Qin is the one who usually plays the role of mother, but she is too busy.

Klee is a child who grew up in a happy life, but she is also afraid of loneliness. Whether she is frying fish or getting into trouble, she just wants to attract Jyn's attention. Maybe Klee herself doesn't know why, at least in the past few days with Jyn's company, Klee has indeed behaved a lot better.

When Saphir carried Rimuru into the Knights, Jean was the first to notice her arrival.

Seeing Saphir coming in, Qin coughed lightly and asked, "Why are you here instead of going to the city to play?"

"I'm here to find Kelly." Safier stated his purpose with a smile.

When Klee heard Saphir's voice, she raised her head suddenly and saw the big slime on Saphir's chest.

After a moment's pause, surprise flashed in the little girl's eyes, but she was still not sure. After all, it was just a casual remark, and Keli had thought that Saphir said that just to coax the child.

But now the other party was holding a slime in front of her, and Klee couldn't help but think about it.

"Hey! Is that little Klee? My name is Rimuru Tempest, not an evil slime!" Because he had said it beforehand, Rimuru decisively said this sentence which was somewhat like a code.

This sentence also confirmed his identity, which made Kelly's already bright eyes even brighter.

The little fellow's red eyes seemed to glow, and he couldn't take his eyes off Rimuru. He placed the index fingers of both hands on his chest, tapping them, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

Looking at Klee's little appearance, Saphir knew what she was thinking. Ever since she read the comic book adapted from Albedo, the little girl has always wanted to raise a slime to play with.

She once tried to catch a slime and take it home as a pet. Since she was the Fire-attributed God's Eye, it was natural for her to catch a fire slime.

As we all know, the fire slime is not a stable elemental creature, so the final outcome of the fire slime that was caught by Klee is obvious.

It exploded.

Fortunately, no one was injured, but a house was still destroyed.

Fortunately, the explosion did not occur in Mondstadt, but in the Dust Song Pot. There were basically no ordinary people in the Dust Song Pot, so no casualties occurred.

Because of A Yuan's disordered fire element, there is always fairy power mixed with flames on his body, so Xiangling thought that this was caused by accidentally eating Jueyun pepper.

Afterwards, Klee was depressed for a long time. Seeing the little girl's aggrieved look, Qin didn't have the heart to punish her, and the matter was left unresolved.

This time the real owner is here, and it was a lie for Klee to say she didn't want to raise the pet.

In fact, on the way here, Saphir also talked with Rimuru, so Rimuru also had a preliminary understanding of this child.

Saphir meant to let Rimuru stay with Klee, not only to play with her, but also to protect her closely, which was killing two birds with one stone. Rimuru was not opposed to this. To be fair, he liked this child very much, but he didn't know what Jean thought.

That's why this happened.

Saphir noticed the expressions of Jean and Keli, and said with a chuckle, "I'm here to give Keli a gift. I can't break my promise."

"Really... can you really give it to me?" Klee was very surprised. Thinking about it was one thing and confirming it was another. Today she saw the real Rimuru and learned that it was possible to bring him with her. This made her feel as if she was living in a dream.

"Does Klee like this slime?" Jean saw what Klee was thinking, but still asked.

Klee nodded immediately, her eyes sparkling. She originally wanted to see if she could raise a slime, but now she actually had the chance to raise Rimuru. She had no reason to refuse.

Looking at the excited little Klee, Qin sighed softly, knowing that she couldn't refuse for her, so she could only touch Klee's head and said, "Since Klee likes it, then let's do it."

Seeing that Jean agreed, Saphir looked at Rimuru and warned him: "When you follow Keri from now on, you must protect her well, otherwise I will fight you for three hundred rounds!"

"I don't want to fight with you!" Rimuru immediately shook his body. Although he didn't know what specific methods Saphir had, he was very sure of one thing, that is, this woman had the breath of death.

This means that she can ignore many of her own resistances and directly launch lethal damage, which is unstoppable.

As a useless slime, he avoided Saphir as much as possible.

After getting Rimuru's assurance, Saphir handed him over: "Happy Wind Flower Festival, Klee."

"Thank you, Sister Saphir, thank you, Captain Jean! Happy Wind Flower Festival!" Klee happily took Rimuru from Saphir and went to play happily.

The little guy ran away, and Qin remembered that her painting was not finished yet, but... forget it, it’s not a big deal.

Cleaning up the mess on the table made by Klee, Jean said with a sigh, "You obviously don't agree with my overprotection of Noelle, but you dote on Klee."

"Do you think this is pampering?" Saphir looked at the piano that kept moving in his hands and said in a faint tone, "The child is only six years old. It's not the time to shatter her dream."

"Whether they are six or sixteen, they are all children." After tidying up the clutter on the table, Qin suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. In the past, she had to be busy at this time, but now, she had nothing to do and had to chat with Saphir.

Saphir pulled out a chair and sat down, tucking the hair that fell beside his cheek behind his ear: "Our ideas have always been in conflict, Jean. I used to think that you, the Lionfang Knight, were just like King Arthur who didn't understand human nature. You protected the people here with arbitrary tenderness and self-righteousness."

"Do you still think so now?" Qin was not annoyed. After all, in her opinion, Saphir's words were not derogatory.

Saphir shook his head: "Sure enough, compared to a lion, you are more like a dandelion, a fickle wind, an unruly wind, a free wind, an ever-changing wind... Only the children of the wind can keep up with such free will.

You are like a scattered dandelion, seemingly weak, but firmly chasing the footsteps of the wind. Many times, it is not what you want to be, but what you have to be. In this respect, we are very similar. "

"..." It was the first time that Qin heard Saphir say such a thing. For a moment, she didn't know how to react. After a long silence, she slowly said, "You're joking. We... are still different."

Saphir did not deny what Qin said. She nodded: "Of course, we are different after all."

Of course, they are different. Qin's living environment is more relaxed, and she has room for choice, while Saphir has no choice in many cases. She can only go all the way to the end.

But none of them would say this because it would be meaningless.

Kelly is Alice's daughter, so nothing can happen to her, but Saphir doesn't trust Alice now, because she feels more and more that she seems to be being plotted against, but she can't tell by whom.

She always felt like there was a big net covering her and she couldn't escape. Many things started a long time ago. How long ago? Probably... it was the time at the Wind Dragon Ruins.

No, it should have been earlier. It should have been the time when Noel broke through. Someone did something, which led to the subsequent events.

There were only a few people present at the time, and Ying, Barbara, and Noelle were no different from Marlo, so it couldn't have been them. Saphir knew that he didn't do such a thing.

The rest of the people... not to mention Lin Yi who is already dead, his possibility is not great either. After all, he once stopped Saphir from entering the place where Xu Sanrenli was separated from his family, which means that he knew the truth about the earth vein seal but was a conservative.

The remaining people hiding behind the scenes are Alice, Nico, Wendy and...her.

That self from the "future".

These people all have motives, but Safire is not sure who is in charge, or whether these people are actually working together.

This kind of thing gave her a headache. She fell into a trap without knowing it. It was only after several years that she vaguely realized it. Even then, she couldn't get out of it.

Because the lifting of the seal on the earth veins is irreversible, it is too late to go to the Midsummer Courtyard now, and she can only go forward step by step.

It is absolutely undesirable to naively believe that your future self will not harm you. Since it has been determined that going back to the past is unrealistic, then coming from the future must be a lie.

The answer should come from parallel time and space. Only by disrupting the judgment of time in this way can there be a chance to achieve the current situation.

Safir had no idea what her future self wanted to do, but she didn't dare to trust him too much.

Although the drama of being an enemy of oneself is bloody, it has happened before. But now her strength is still far from her peak. She cannot act rashly, and she cannot be sure that she is still in this world.

But Saphir was very sure that he must have done more than just these things, and that he had worked closely with Alice, otherwise Alice would not have led him down the path of no return of sealing the earth veins.

What role did Alice play in this?

Klee was definitely unaware of this, so why did Alice allow Klee to get close to her? Wasn't she afraid that she would do something to Klee in anger?

She didn't believe Alice was so naive, so Kelly must have some kind of insurance, maybe a detection method or something else.

The main purpose of letting Rimuru stay with Klee this time is to observe her carefully and let him try to find out the foreshadowing that Alice left on Klee.

Safire didn't want her position to be in conflict with Alice's, but she had to be on guard. As her understanding of this world deepened, she remembered and analyzed many of the unnatural things that happened in the past.

She didn't expect to be able to analyze anything, but she could use it to judge a person's trustworthiness.

Right now, for Safire, the most trustworthy people are actually the subordinates of the Fatui. The credibility of the rest of the people is questionable to her.

Including...Morax.
